与世界各地的朋友一起学习语言

   英语第十六天 2010-10-7

    推荐一个英语学习网站给大家http://cn.livemocha.com ，这网站上号称有六百万来自不同的国度的同学在一起学习。经过我的尝试发现，在上面大家可以相互交流学习，相互当老师批阅其他同学提交的作业。下面就举两个实例，说明下在这个网站上面学习好玩的事情。

    我今天在网站上进行了英语学习后，课程要求写一段话。

    题目之一，

    描述物品：描述桌面上的一组物体。描述盒子里的一组物体。例如：一束鲜花放在桌子上，糖果放在盒子里。

以下是我提交的内容，

The woman is on the bus.
The boy is not in bed,he is on the couch.
The flowers are on the table.
I am in the chair.
The computer is on my table.
The candy is in the box.
The food is on the table.
I am not at the door,I am at the car.
I am not on the bus,I am in my chair.
The buildings are on the ground.

 

以下是一个英语为母语的朋友的批阅及回复，

The woman is on the bus.

The boy is not in bed, he is on the couch.

I am in the chair.

I am not at the door, I am at the car.

The buildings are on the ground.

Describe a set of objects on a table. Describe another set of objects in a box. EX. The flowers are on the table, and the candy is in the box.

The flowers are on the table. The computer is on my table.

The candy is in the box.

The food is on the table.

I have a new pair of shoes in a box, under my bed.

There is crockery and cutlery, set out on the table.

I kep some coins in box for change, when I need it.

I received a gift of some flowers and they arrived in a box.

Kyle, here are some extra sentences that may be of some interest.

 

     题目之二，

    人们在做什么？

     用肯定特征和否定特征分别描述六个人在做什么：一个女人、一个男人、一个女孩、一个男孩、你和我。例如：我正坐在餐桌旁吃饭。我不是在床上睡觉。

以下是我提交的内容

The man is runing with a red flower in his left hand, when he come across a boy. The boy is laughing at a dog,for that dog look like a pig.That man keep running,he went into a house.There is a woman on the couch,it is his mother.She is surprising,for the flowers is changing into food.I am eating in the chair.
I am not joking,I am doing exercise.

以下是一个英语为母语的朋友的批阅及回复，

Very good, except that instead of "come," "keep," et cetera, it should be "comes," "keeps," et cetera. "Come"is the conjugation of a plural subject for present tense verbs; "comes" is for singular subjects. Also, "runing" should be "running." In the third sentence, there should be a space between the comma and the word "he." In this same sentence, change "went" to "goes:" you cannot change tenses from present to past like this. In the fourth sentence, change the comma to a semicolon and add a space between the punctation and the word "it." In the following sentence, "surprising" means "surprises one;" this word should be changed to "surprised." Add a space between the comma and "for." Additionally, "the flowers are changing" is the correct way to phrase this. Insert a space between the last comma and "I," or change the sentence to, "I am not joking but doing exercise."

    以上就是两个实际例子，相信大家也差不多了解这种方式了。在这上面除了别人帮我们纠正英文之外，我们也可以帮别人纠正中文。这里就不举例说明了。总之在这上面，我们可以和世界各地的人类交流学习，相互纠正语言，共同进步。个人觉得，这是个很好玩的学习地方。

    推荐就到此结束，感不感兴趣就是个人的事了。
